Chapter 153 Oiran
Ji Zimo of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory was looking at the starry sky with a frown. There were strange phenomena in the stars, but he couldn't figure out what would happen.
I could only go back to the study and keep looking through the books, trying to find some clues.
"Sir Ji, Eunuch Jin'an is here." The small official said outside the door.
Ji Zimo quickly stood up and went outside, bowing to Jin An: "Eunuch Jin An, why are you here at this time?"
"Your Majesty, please summon Lord Ji to see you." Jin'an had a smile on his face.
"Eunuch Jin'an, please wait a moment. I'll come after I change my clothes." Ji Zimo quickly turned around to change his clothes and followed Jin'an.
When he arrived at the imperial study, he was slightly surprised to see Lu Heyu there.
However, he collected his thoughts and knelt before Xi Jinyou: "Your Majesty, I, Ji Zimo, pay my respects to you."
"Master Ji, please get up!" Xi Jinyou asked him to get up and talk.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" After Ji Zimo expressed his gratitude, he stood aside and waited for him to speak.
Xi Jinyou didn't beat around the bush: "Master Ji, is there anything unusual in the stars recently?"
Ji Zimo's heart skipped a beat, but he still answered honestly, "Your Majesty, I observed the stars tonight and did notice a change, but I haven't figured out the reason yet."
"Not found?" Xi Jinyou's voice sounded a little dissatisfied.
Ji Zimo's forehead was sweating. "I am not very knowledgeable, and this is the first time I have encountered such astrological phenomena. I don't have an answer yet."
"There will be a snow disaster this winter. You should report this to the court tomorrow morning!" Xi Jinyou's voice was very calm.
Ji Zimo was a little surprised: "Your Majesty, this, this humble official has not found the reason. If something goes wrong, this..."
"Even if there is a mistake, I will not punish you." Xi Jinyou gave him a reassurance.
"I obey your order." Ji Zimo said and then left. He still needed to write a memorial overnight.
Lu Heyu remained silent the entire time, and only said after Ji Zimo left: "Your Majesty intends to have all officials pay attention to the snow disaster."
Xi Jinyou nodded: "Although I know the snowstorm will happen, I don't know which areas will be affected. If I ask her to calculate it, she will definitely be able to figure it out."
"But I don't want to rely on her for everything. She has helped me a lot. It's because of her that I have cleaned up many people in the court."
Lu Heyu: "If Your Majesty has no other instructions, I will withdraw first."
"He Yu." Xi Jinyou called him.
Lu Heyu turned to look at Xi Jinyou: "Your Majesty, is there anything else you want to ask?"
"If you were asked to sit in this seat, would you be willing?" Xi Jinyou asked, looking into his eyes.
"No." Lu Heyu answered without hesitation, without even a pause.
Xi Jinyou looked at him: "Why?"
"As a minister, I can barely get a good night's sleep every day. If I were to sit in your Majesty's position, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have time to close my eyes."
"I only wish that if I live past the age of twenty, I can take a vacation and explore this beautiful land."
Lu Heyu never thought that one day he would sit in a high position.
"Don't even think about it. If you take a vacation, I will be without my left and right arms." Xi Jinyou didn't want to see him having a good time.
Lu Heyu looked up at him and said, "Your Majesty really doesn't intend to let me rest."
"When I retire, that's when you can rest." Xi Jinyou looked at him and smiled.
"Then I have a suggestion. Your Majesty should get married and have children as soon as possible, train a successor, and retire early." Lu Heyu spoke to him with a lot of ease.
Xi Jinyou was so angry that he clenched his back teeth. This guy knew that there was someone in his heart, but he still said such things.
"Hurry up and go, hurry up and go."
Lu Heyu bowed to him and said, "I will take my leave."
On the other side, Su Nuobai and his companions, after coming out of the Ministry of Justice, actually went to the night market.
Mo Bao and Xiao Jiang looked at her pitifully when they saw something funny.
Su Nuobai is not a stingy person: "The money is on you, just buy whatever you like."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Feng Zhi who was standing beside her and said, "If you like something, just buy it yourself without asking me."
"Okay." Feng Zhi nodded with a smile.
The city of Shengjing is brightly lit at night and looks even more lively than during the day.
Of course, this excitement isn't just about people, there are also ghosts.
Sometimes it is not a good thing to open the third eye, because some ghosts with bad death looks often appear to spoil the mood.
It was a great flower boat show on the lake, but the people below had wet heads and pale faces, but they were still watching with great interest.
Or there might be a pair of feet swaying in the wind on a tree with many beautiful lanterns hanging on it.
She was considering doing a good deed every day and just throwing them all into the underworld.
"Strange." Feng Zhi suddenly said.
Su Nuobai turned to look at him: "What's strange?"
"Have you noticed that there are no ghosts on this street?" Feng Zhi said, pointing to an unusually busy street.
Su Nuobai looked at the street he was talking about. This street was a famous red-light district in Shengjing, with brothels and prostitutes all over the place.
It is deserted during the day, but becomes the most lively place in Shengjing City at night.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be ghosts on this street. If something is unusual, there must be something wrong.
"Go and have a look."
Feng Zhi quickly grabbed her and said, "This is a brothel, do you really want to go?"
"Go, it's a good opportunity to see for yourself." After Su Nuobai said this, he pinched his fingers together and cast an illusion on himself, turning himself into a handsome young man.
Feng Zhi pointed at the two curious babies beside him with a headache: "What should we do with them?"
Mo Bao had a keen eye. He flashed and turned into a black light and drilled into Su Nuobai's waist bag.
Xiao Jiang looked at the person who suddenly disappeared beside him: This is called being disloyal, do you know that?
Su Nuobai looked at Xiao Jiang, who looked depressed: "It's better for the kid to go back early."
"No, you have to cast a sleight of hand for me." Xiao Jiang would rather die than go back alone.
Su Nuobai looked at him seriously: "Children can't go to such places."
"Shouldn't women come too?" Xiao Jiang held his head high and refused to back down.
"I'm going to get some information." Su Nuobai looked at him with a headache.
Xiao Jiang: "I'm older than both of you combined. Stop using children as an excuse."
Su Nuobai thought about it and said: "Okay, don't run around everywhere, we don't know what's in here."
"I understand. I will definitely not run around." Xiao Jiang immediately agreed when he saw that she agreed.
Su Nuobai used a trick to make him become his servant.
After disguising themselves, they entered the red-light district. As soon as they entered, a girl soliciting business came to pull their arms.
"Sir, come in and play!"
"The girls in our building are all very beautiful."
Before Su Nuobai decided which building to go to, she heard several men passing by chatting.
"Hurry up, there's a new courtesan at the Moon Viewing Tower. If you're too late you won't be able to see her."
"Is the new oiran really as beautiful as you say?"
"Her skin is as white as cream, as white as if it were glowing, her facial features are cold yet alluring, and her figure is impeccable. I guarantee you'll lose your soul after seeing her."
